THIS is why Air is my favorite Key work; it was smart enough to keep the cast minimal and tell just three small-ish stories in the span of thirteen episodes. It worked beautifully....the tragedy is really harsh to get through though...but once you do, it almost feels like "a relief". I can't describe it. It's an amazing series. |

Well, I mean... the 13th episode is technically a recap episode and it didn't get included in the DVD copy I own... But yeah, stuff like that is part of why I loved Air as well. ♥ |

| @Lustrius The part with Hina and Youta bonded is very rushed for sure. That's why it's not hitting me the way it should. |

Lustrius said: Chiibi said: @Lustrius The part with Hina and Youta bonded is very rushed for sure. That's why it's not hitting me the way it should. Agreed. Such wasted potential. Also, didn’t he like Izanami? I saw no actual development, romantically, between Hina and our mc and then saying he loves her out of nowhere just seems like bad writing to me. I can see it romantically from Hina's side...but not Youta's. I took his confession like "I love you like I just want you to stay in my life" kind of way. As a younger friend, a sister...a family member...MAYBE 'eventual girlfriend' but it doesn't seem like it. Since he said "Look, all these other people love you too!" I could be wrong...but the 'love' definition is likely to stay vague...especially now with Hina's condition. No idea what's going on with Izanami right now. Youta seems too worried about Hina as a person to focus on anything else. |

| Only time will tell. I prefer they keep it 'platonic' because that makes more sense from a writing standpoint. It was just a hug though. He didn't try kissing her or say "Be my wife :( " |
|
| Hmm I think she must be at least 13 or 14...going by her real father's story. But Lustrius said: it still sadly doesn't change that fact that it felt rushed and unsatisfying. Indeed, it does not. :( Hope the next Key work will be better...in the meantime, there are still some more shows for me to watch.^^ |

| A very good and emotional episode but the explanation about Hina's omniscience was perplexing, to put it mildly. Quantum computers, whether the current super cold ones or a potential future room temperature one, cannot provide the specific kind of omniscience Hina has exhibited, in particular allow her to predict the future. They are very good and efficient (per qubit) at computing tasks that -provided they have enough qubits- might take even the fastest classical supercomputer millions of years to complete. One interesting trait they have, due to the way they work, is that with each additional qubit their performance doubles; i.e. a 1024-qubit quantum computer would be twice as fast as a 1023-qubit quantum computer, despite their seemingly marginal difference. But that's just about it. No quantum computer could ever predict the future though (hypothetically) a quantum computer with maybe hundreds of millions of qubits or more could access in real time every (internet connected) camera in the world, since it could potentially break even the toughest encryption protocols and also have an immense computing power to process and make sense of everything in real time. That's how Hina presumably was able to watch in real time the multiple "authorizations" against her. While that's technically possible (as long as Hina's quantum computing chip is super powerful, and it must be) it still wouldn't allow Hina to see or predict the future. It couldn't provide Hina with a time window beyond which she couldn't not "see" (ala Dr Manhattan) either, so she couldn't have predicted her (personal) end of the world at all. Anyway, quantum computing rant over. I wonder what on Earth the next three episodes are going to be about. This episode really felt like a show finale. Are Hina's friends going to rescue her? But how? Maybe with the help of a remorseful Suzuki Hiroto? |
 |
| I like how hina just accepted reality for what it is, no bs hoping for da best or praying like some chump. Taking the kill like a real chad. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| AB Hinata-Yui relationship vibes. Damn, couldn't be more forced. It is not too bad to be fair, but everything seems convenient for this moment. |
Atlos said: I wish this show would just stay as comedy because that is what Jun Maeda is good at. I really dislike the forced melodrama that he puts in all his shows I agree. This anime and its characters shine when it doesnt take itself too serious, and deals with the comedy and the silliness. |
| oh! an Emow episode...seems legit... 4/5. |
 |
| Hiroto is just....... amazing. This is why geniuses need a good background. Otherwise, with parents like these, you end up like Hiroto. He did his best to redeem himself. Hina loves Yota and now Yota reciprocated her feelings. The IzaYota ship has sunk. |
 |
| Lots of focus on Suzuki this episode. I guess they tried to build his character a bit. So Hina's world will end, but nobody else's? That's the impression I got. Time to see how it plays out. |
| Terrible drama attempt and dumb characters decisions. First of all, the hacker getting manipulated again by other people is just dumb and its worse when you know that he can ruin that company himself using his powers. They also know he's dangerous but did they forget he can use his powers against them as warning Hina? The emotion of this episode was lacking in every sense. Hina and Yota are terrible characters, so the sudden confession is not organic and is very forced. I cannot stop rolling my eyes when they explained her 'powers' with a fucking computer chip. |

| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
| Seems like shit gets serious now, even though its a bit too fast of a transition. Have to say the explanation sounded pretty stupid like how the heck does a quantum computer chip compensate for a physical disease (assuming Logos syndrome is similiar to Ehler-Danlos Syndrome based on the given description). Really hope that the 'I love you' was in a platonic way, because I can't see them as lovers. |
 |
| For being revealed to have a quantum computer in her head, Hina sure is stupid. Oh, a bunch of shady Japanese corporations have 'authorised' the chip be removed and hidden (essentially killing her) and she just gives up. The backstory of Suzuki was tragic and gives a glimpse into his character. Although it makes no sense as to why he was just going along with the work he was given until being tossed aside like his parents did to him. That super computer interface of his, an infamous hacker and he just 'warns Hina'? He could have made any number of more useful actions e.g. get back at the CEO by taking down her entire company with a single hand swipe. Break networks, wipe databases and their backups. He talks a big game and even reached out to a secret quantum computer, yet he can't prevent a bunch of shady people communicating enough to arange what is essentially a hit on a child. A simple leak on social media or to certain governments would also throw a wrench into trying to hide the operation to kill Hina. Really hope this is resolved in at least a partially thoughtful way and not through pure plot armour/luck. |

| So Pappy Odin constructed an artificial superintelligence that essentially processes all available data on a global scale simultaneously, then uses that data to accurately project future events? I've read about this concept in theory, but I don't think I've seen it used in media before (not that I read a lot of sci-fi), so it's kind of cool to see here. But how it counterbalances this "logos syndrome" or what have you is unclear and tenuous. and yeah, I'm afraid I have to echo the thread-wide sentiment that the character emotions didn't fully resonate with me as I'd expect from Maedashit. Izanami's episode hit me much harder. hacker bro being a bro was a nice twist, because it did seem like the series was playing him the villain. |

| What the actual fuck? This ep was an absolute 180 and not in a good way. It felt like I was watching a completely different anime… that tone shift was too sudden and too extreme |
 |
| These secret society cabals are infamous for their diplomatic immunity; reporting their kidnapping operation, which is already quite discreet and easy to cover up, would be as about as effective a solution as reporting someone who said hurty words online to the "cyber police". But it's no surprise they would rather consolidate this brain chip quantum computer of Hina's for themselves, as it'd allow them to economically ruin rivals and manipulate the stock markets with high-frequency trading. Somewhat surprised at Youta's confession to Hina though. While Hina displayed subtle, and yet very evident signs of attraction towards Youta early on (e.g. jealous murmuring when Youta was fawning over Izanami), Youta's development of romantic affection for her seems more sudden and difficult to follow. Just a few episodes ago it felt like he was still very much in love with Izanami, yet now we see him professing his love for Hina, even though their interactions haven't been particularly communicative. |
